Sprucing up your spaces Over the past few months, the Community Development and Engagement Team, in partnership with Housing Choices’ Housing and Property Teams, have been hard at work sprucing up several block building spaces! All activities are guided by resident consultation and participation. Staff and residents have uplifted: • Beavers Road, Thornbury • Chetwynd Street, North Melbourne • Eastbourne Road, Rosebud • Hodgkinson Street, Clifton Hill and • Peel Street, Kew A few more spruce-up activities are planned once the warmer weather starts. It was lovely to enjoy a BBQ lunch and banter together. Thank you to those who volunteered on the day with their sweat, time, and effort into sprucing up their spaces. If you or your community have ideas on ways to spruce up your space, there is the opportunity for residents to apply for a ‘Resident Community Fund’. The Resident Community Fund is a $2,500 grant that can go toward organising a community outing, a group art or cooking class, spruce ups, any other environmental initiative and more!

Applications are assessed by our Victorian Resident Advisory Committee (VRAC) and Community Development and Engagement Team. If you’re interested in applying, please email the Community Development and Engagement Team communitydevelopmentvic@hcau.org.au for an application form.
